CALLING

Calling for the dreamless sleep,
Where I let darkness completely enfold,
Silently I lie there,
My body slowly growing cold.
 
Yet my spirit does not leave,
Why I don’t completely know,
Drowning for years in a lake of pain,
That has no outward flow.
 
Anguish always flooding in,
I simply wish it all would end,
How much more can I take?
Is there no relief around the bend?
 
Silently I lie there,
My body slowly growing cold,
The dreamless sleep does not come,
So I let my covers finally enfold.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

sometimes in times of weakness and depression we don't think of what we have..yet it's existence is known in the back of our minds...holding us here..helping the will to survive.
